location of files when I click "save"

Mailing list—I stand corrected. 

Something worked, though I’m not sure what it was.  That said, when I click “File” then “Save As,” where should I have the file saved, and what name should it have?  Also, when I simply click on “Save” that appears on the left side of the toolbar, where is that being saved?  Thanks.

To be accurate this is a mailing list not a forum.

I don't understand what you mean.  Does File > Open not work for you?
You said that you knew where the files were so you should be able to
browse to them in the File Open dialog.

As for the Recent Files that is just a list of recently used files
that appears at the bottom of the menu when you click File.

If you are still not having success then please explain *exactly* what
you are doing (click this, click that and so on) and *exactly* what is
happening or not happening.  As you have described it so far you have
not given sufficient information for me to understand what problem you
are having, which makes it difficult to offer a solution.
